March 13, 2017: The South African National Roads Agency (SOC) Ltd (SANRAL) is participating during Scifest Africa, a platform promoting public awareness, understanding and appreciation of science, technology and innovation, which started on March 8 and ends on March 14 in Grahamstown.
SANRAL is making information available on building roads and bridges and also informs visitors about scholarships and bursary programmes available. SANRAL make provision for about 200 scholarship holders annually. In 2016 the bursary programme made provision for 110 students.
“We are very pleased with the outcome this year. We had an influx of learners enquiring about the scholarship programmes. There were also those who wanted to know in-depth about construction of roads,” said SANRAL marketing manager Michelle Ah Shene.
